I love Olympic weighting and can squat much more than my husband weighs 🤣.

You need to understand the sellers currency and what they put the most weight on.There might be many more options open on the table than just the ones you mentioned.

I would certainly put little weight on a Zillow estimate.

The outer plate sits on the concrete wall but outer frame (which is 3 ft from the outside wall) is only supported by interior walls running perpendicular and even at that they are not build the way I would build them to hold weight.  

It has been awesome so far, and I assure you that Bigger Pockets is worth its weight in gold as long as you stay active.

They are "weighted" the same.

People respond to incentives, and if the incentives are more heavily weighted towards deal security than net price, it is in everyone's interest to go with the sure thing.

You have to put weight in the market as much as, if not more than, the property itself.

These include: The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) and the banking departments of various states also regulate financial institutions.Traditional Bank Cons:Possibly Lengthy Application ProcessStrict Underwriting Guidelines including financial documents to support debt to income ratiosLonger Underwriting Times that can go between 45-60+ days depending on property.Private Lender Pros:Fast & Easy Application Process due to being asset-based lender.Credit Score less of a factor as the weight is based on ability to make payments and not debt-to-income ratios.Generally quick funding turnaround between 5-10 business days. 

I am trying to weight the pros and cons in my head.
